Spring Beauties



I never know where to post these photos. They are flowers and I love to capture them on "film" (digital film these days) but they are from my husband, who is currently deployed overseas so then I think maybe they should go on my Random Ramblings blog. I think I like them best here on my photo blog.
My husband has sent me flowers every month he's gone since our very first deployment. We are on #10 as a married couple since 1987. (We consider a deployment 3 months or longer consecutively b/c that's what the Navy considered a deployment when we were first married) The majority of our 10 deployments have been 6 months or longer - a couple of 3 and 4 monthers mixed in there.

Anyway - it started in 1988 with a single red carnation a couple times a month for 3 months and from there it grew. Now I get roses, tulips, iris's and more :)
